<li>Majority of Cutia’s products are based on license-in/distribution agreements. Cutia’s independent R&amp;D capability has yet to be proven. Stock prices of companies that completely rely on license-in are unsatisfactory.</li>
<li>Cutia's pipelines have unique characteristics. So, the requirements on team's ability are comprehensive. Purely medical background of Cutia's team could be a “hindrance” and may fail to commercialize them well.</li>
<li>There is a real need in the fields Cutia is focusing on, so the story is compelling. However, with limited commercialized products, it’s difficult to prove anything at current stage.</li>
